Özet

Two patients who had angiographically proven coronary artery aneurysms are presented. The clinical pictures of these patients were similar to that of patients with atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. Both had severe angina pectoris, and the second patient (case 2) had had myocardial infarction. Their coronary artery aneurysms were single, fusiform (case 1) and saccular (case 2) in shape and not associated with extensive coronary atherosclerosis. They were treated medically and did well.
